What is that, it’s really pre

The best code its given me I’d been able to search for and find where it was taken. Hey it helped me discover some real human blogs with vastly more helpful information.

(If you’re curious, it was circa when there was that weird infight at openclosedAI with altman, I prompted to give code to find the rotational inertia per axis and to my surprise and suspicion the answer made too much sense. Backsearching I found where I believe it got this answer from)

Shut up with your history man I don’t want to learn and want to repeat until the earth boils, what’s so wrong with that?

No but really, if these tools were actually to be used in such an egregious manor of which their creators envision, their little short term stock bump means actual energy and water scarcity for a lot of us. Yay. Could be any other proletarianization, but we get the one that could really fuck us over

Turning the Ionosphere and Mantel in to halves of a capacitor would both take more energy than humans have ever generated and be really really really bad for anything tall and conductive

This is the first time I’ve heard of this hypothesis, as I’ve just generally avoided media talking about the secrets of Tesla’s free energy or whatever, but I am very curious how this would work and what such tripple really bad would happen, sounds like a sweet soft sci fi setting.

+1 for Shelly as I have or any other drop in relay, all the wiring you’ll need to do is behind the switchplate, you can decouple the input switch from the relay output and have HA trigger either output based on some input conditions. My fav config is having two flips of the switch perform a different action

Alternatively, use a closed ecosystem susceptible to data rot and loss.

Would you want art to be unfindable because scraping for AI image generation happens? It’s a solution looking for problems.

+1 for Proxmox, has been a fun experience as there are plenty of resources and helper scripts to get you off the ground, jellyfin was the first thing I migrated from my PC, hardware encoding may give you a bit of a tussle but nothing unsolveable. Also note Proxmox is Debian under the hood, so you may find it easy to work with. I looked into unraid, it seems great if all you’re doing for the most part is storage, if you want Linux containers and virtual machines, proxmox js your bet.

I got a small 4 bay 2U server from a friend on the cheap, 1000$ should get you relatively nice new or slightly older used hardware. Even just a PC with a nice amount of drive bays will get you started. And drives are cheap, a raid 1 setup was one of the things I did.

In the end I’ll likely get a separate NAS rack server just to segregate functions, but as of now I simply have a Proxmox LXC mounted to my NAS drives and runs samba to expose them.

Tailscale is a nice set and forget solution for VPN access, I ended up going the route of getting an SSL certified domain and beefing up my firewall a bit. The bit I’ve messed with it it certainly has a learning curve greater than openvpn, but is much more hardened and versatile.

As for pihole, I’ve found AdGuard Home to be just about a suitable replacement, and can be installed along openwrt, though I have a bit of an unconventional router with 512MB of RAM so YMMV

I got a 1U 32GB and a 4 core Xeon for 20$, you just have to make at least 3 more posts

Imagine the absolutely massive grave they would have themselves if we were still in the golden age of console gaming, I hope not any more than now

Appreciate the further reading! It’s been a fun rabbit hole and as I see it just keeps going.

Being newer to all this, I’m very hesitant to fully open to the public, especially security wise, as I don’t think too cautious is a thing. What are maybe a few things you had wished you’d known from the start? And pardon me if you have a good read I haven’t gotten to yet 😅

Edit: just read your importance of security post, that’s quite a fright! Thank you for posting of such an incident, it’s invaluable to have mistakes to learn from

Just getting started in my first year of having a homelab running, I really appreciate little insights like these as I am still fairly without direction in the field.

I’d love to hear your thoughts on activitypub and how that may affect personal networking and connectivity in the future, as I see you have your blog tied to your instance, maybe a general guide for some footsteps to follow. Cheers!

using AI to detect AI garbage

It’s like an ass backward halting problem that pivots on actually taking time to choose and license training data… but where’s the financial incentive in that?

Move fast and break everything, I guess.

Hey yes, add a person for each person you want to have access, only have yourself as admin that way they wont have direct access to entities.

Now you can use either conditional dashboards, or conditional cards to control what utilities are available to users. For example, my dashboards home screen shows general controls for everyone, but conditionally shows light controls to each user on the same page. I then have myself an admin dashboard with server controls, etc.

For the garage, that was an issue I sought to avoid, a simple automation that closes the garage if it has been opened for too long, and a toggle for that function as well as garage notifications seem to be plenty.

Only one incident where my jerry-rigged Shelly relay remote had the sensor switch miss, and the auto close - thinking the garage was open - opened the garage. I added an error state so that it would attempt to close again and notify if the garage is open after autoclose, which works if its blocked as well. All of this because MyQ doesnt provide local or API access lol

Edit: turns out I may be wrong about entity access, which is a bit of a shame, hopefully we can see that in a future update.

I was attempting this, but TP link doesnt actually care to tag their different SSIDs to vlans and don’t provide the configuration to, I only found that their guest may be tagged on some models. Just a word of caution, I think I’ll have to use IP range filters to achieve this

PC in the room with the MRI, hard drive now completely destroyed

I was genuinely concerened I had a skill issue with NC, glad I’m not alone

Its so weirdly addictive, started with proxmox, then to home assistant, now I have frigate handling PoE cameras, every bedroom has a morning alarm light automation, the vacuum starts itself, its ridiculous

Thats actually a brilliant idea, a little Macgyver, but certainly what I’m needing, thank you!

Not that its necessary but I would assume I would need per user automations and templates to be able to append a name and add that to a main message todo, a little over what I have time for

Hey don’t mean to hijack, I know tailscale isnt necessarily a tunnel (correct me if I’m wrong) but does it provide the typical issues with apps like android auto not working while connected to a VPN?
